Vikings fans will not have to watch much of the 2025 NFL Draft to see Minnesota's picks. The team traded up twice in the 2024 NFL Draft, and as a result, they have just four picks in next month's draft. Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah may be active on draft day, though, and be looking to get extra picks one way or another.

Chad Reuter of NFL Media has an idea for the Vikings to get some extra picks for the 2025 NFL Draft.

Reuter wrote last week about some win-win trades for teams in the upcoming NFL Draft. For the Vikings, he has them paired up with the Buffalo Bills. He suggests the Vikings trade their 24th overall pick to the Bills for the 30th, 109th, and 132nd overall picks.

Reuter writes, "The Vikings head into the draft with just four picks because of various trades, including one for edge rusher Dallas Turner in last year's first round. Buffalo, Philadelphia and other teams aware of that fact might be hounding general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah for the 24th pick. Minnesota adds two fourth-round selections to its war chest is still be able to select a much-needed defensive back at 30th overall."

It really is a perfect scenario for the Vikings and gives them four picks in the top 132 of the draft. While many come in round three and later, it is still a premium amount of talent to be adding to a roster that is so close to competing.
